The way in which my statements have been grotesquely distorted to meet other people’s agendas is breathtaking. I’m beginning to understand the level of harassment & hatred levelled at trans people. I will be speaking & voting on changes to the GRA & this evidence will be useful.

Please don’t dismiss women’s very real fears. Males commit the vast majority of violent and sex crimes. It is not because some identify as trans that women have an issue with but because transwomen commit sex and violent crime at the same rate as the rest of the male population.

I've seen your pinned tweet, Mr Paddick, it doesn't make anything clearer? You've obviously never had your drink spiked, been locked in a bathroom and sexually assaulted? Otherwise you wouldn't dismiss the fears of REAL women who NEED seperate SEX (not gender) spaces.
-
what you describe is something that no women should ever have to endure- fact- but the fact that some vile vicious men do this already tells you that they don’t need to pretend to be trans - this is about stopping these animals, and ruining trans women’s lives won’t achieve that

Sorry I also forgot to ask, I don't understand how not having the ability to self ID ruins trans women's lives? I don't mean to sound goady, I think you seem genuine and I would like to hear your opinion, thank you!

Anyone trans is forced to legally be deemed the gender they truly are not - it may not be easy to understand but it is genuine and it results in suicide at the worst or ruined lives at the best - how would you feel if you were forced to live as the opposite gender every day

I couldn't answer that, having never been in that situation. I cannot imagine what it's like to be gender dysphoric, and whilst of course I sympathise, but I still cannot agree that sex self ID is the answer. I do think there needs to be a change, but if I'm being honest, I...

...don't know what those changes can be. If we weren't to introduce self ID, what would you change about the current legislation? Maybe the 2 year time limit? The diagnosis of gender dysmorphia? I think if one thing were to stay it should be that. I don't like that this debate...

...seems to have turned so vicious, but I think the
#nodebate and silencing of women has forced it to gravitate towards this. If women were allowed to voice their opinion without fear of abuse, I don't think it would have escalated like it did. I certainly was wanting to... -
...discuss the issue further, unfortunately I was told I was "hysterical" and a "TERF" and when I asked questions in earnest I was mocked or ignored. I do appreciate your thoughts, it's good to see there are people willing to engage!

Glad you find it funny. Comes across as cowardice to the rest of us.

Fascinating how Brian does that male thing of making it all about him. Boo hoo the nasty women are saying things to a political figure? Not quite the spirit of the Blirz, is it?
